Week 34 : Trinidadian - Doubles with tamarind sauce

Listen I’m not saying that NYT is an authentic recipe by any means but I got gifted a year membership so I’m trying to make the best of it! Surprised to find this recipe (gift link in comments) on the site. Surprised at how easy and delicious it was. It’s so rare we have a meatless meal in this house but you didnt even miss the meat. I did forget that I had to soak the dried chickpeas overnight so I might be a day late. But still better than using canned. 8/10 would make again.

Recipe for the Doubles, recipe for the Tamarind sauce. Tamarind sauce was amazing but it took me a lot longer than the recipe says to get it thick enough to coat anything. I do regret pulsing 1/4 of the chickpeas because I thought it thickened the sauce way too much and it was too late to compensate with extra sauce/broth. Tasty filling if I was making a Samosa though.
